Answer:
Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.

Answer:

Explanation:
The speed of light in these mediums shall be lower than that in vacuum thus the total time light needs to cross both the media are calculated as under
Total time = Time taken through ice + Time taken through quartz
Time taken through ice = Thickness of ice / (speed of light in ice)


Thus in the same time the it would had covered a distance of
![Distance_{vaccum}=Totaltime\times V_{vaccum}\\\\Distance_{vaccum}=10^{-2}[2.20\mu _{ice+1.50\mu _{quartz}}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Distance_%7Bvaccum%7D%3DTotaltime%5Ctimes%20V_%7Bvaccum%7D%5C%5C%5C%5CDistance_%7Bvaccum%7D%3D10%5E%7B-2%7D%5B2.20%5Cmu%20_%7Bice%2B1.50%5Cmu%20_%7Bquartz%7D%7D%5D)
we have

Applying values we have
![Distance_{vaccum}=10^{-2}[2.20\times 1.309+1.50\times 1.542]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Distance_%7Bvaccum%7D%3D10%5E%7B-2%7D%5B2.20%5Ctimes%201.309%2B1.50%5Ctimes%201.542%5D)

I beleive that the answer is B.
Answer:
Electrons in different metals
Explanation:
When you heat an atom, some of its electrons are "excited* to higher energy levels. When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy. The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.
